Are you quite sure Mike Tyson is a good plan to have? His behavior hasn't exactly been the best. JY23 16:26, 18 December 2008 (EST)

He was the undefeated champ for a good period of time. I agree on the behavior aspect that he could be disqualified, same for Jim Brown.--jpatt 16:52, 18 December 2008 (EST)

...Jack Nicholson? I wasn't aware he's a sports idol... --AlanS 16:40, 18 December 2008 (EST)

Every record Tiger breaks seems to be ones previously set by Nicholson--jpatt 16:52, 18 December 2008 (EST)

...are you sure you don't mean Jack Nicklaus? --AlanS 16:55, 18 December 2008 (EST)

(Please note: I know NOTHING about golf, so this is an honest question based on some googling. --AlanS 16:56, 18 December 2008 (EST))

Ooppsy, got me AlanS. Shows how much I know about golf.--jpatt 18:07, 18 December 2008 (EST)

I changed everything up, now to put the pictures on. JY23 17:10, 18 December 2008 (EST)

I'd like to see Rocky Bleier (Pittsburgh Steelers of the 70's). He is a personal idol of mine. I'll write the page. WesleyS^Hello! 18:05, 18 December 2008 (EST)

I don't know about the addition of Anderson Silva. He is uncommon if you don't follow the sport. I don't even believe the UFC is professional status. I know it is up and coming, the next great sport, but to put him there with the Babe? Even people who don't follow baseball know Ruth was a baseball player/idol. --jpatt 18:12, 18 December 2008 (EST)

The UFC is definitely professional status, however I would agree that Anderson Silva probably doesn't belong in this list. Also, is this list only for American sports idols (Silva isn't American) or just sports idols in general? --JimP 18:22, 18 December 2008 (EST)
